| sorry to hijack the thread a bit but what sort of system did you ask for? i want to get a stainless system at some point for the polo, wondering if it would be a similar price. | |

| you thought about doing one yourself mike? You can buy all the pipes and bends etc from jetex, personally i would work out from a standard system what bends you need etc.. You can then buy them sleeved so you can join them together, get it all on and dialed in. Then have some of the joints welded so you only have 2 or 3 joints that are on clamps. | |
